ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
This pesticide is toxic to aquatic invertebrates, oysters, and
shrimp. Do not apply directly to water. Drift and runoff
may be hazardous to aquatic organisms in water adjacent
to use sites.
Surface Water Advisory-
This product may contaminate water through runoff. This
product has a high potential for runoff for several months
or more after application. Poorly draining soils and soils
with shallow water tables are more prone to produce
runoff that contains this product. A level, well-maintained
vegetative buffer strip between areas to which this product
is applied and surface water features such as ponds,
streams, and springs will reduce the potential for contami-
nation of water from runoff. Runoff of this product will be
reduced by avoiding applications when rainfall if fore-
casted to occur within 48 hours.
Ground Water Advisory-
This chemical has properties and characteristics associated
with chemicals detected in ground water. The use of this
chemical in areas where soils are permeable, particularly
where the water table is shallow, may result in ground-
water contamination.
